“…Due to the time scales over which they average, geologic slip rates necessarily integrate multiple earthquake cycles into a single rate value. Geologic slip rates have been interpreted as constant over millennial time scales (e.g., Chevalier et al, 2012;Gold & Cowgill, 2011;Hubert-Ferrari et al, 2002;Noriega et al, 2006;Peltzer et al, 2020;Salisbury et al, 2018;Weldon & Sieh, 1985) but have also been shown to vary over centennial to millennial time scales across faults of various kinematics and strain rates (e.g., Burgette et al, 2020;Dolan et al, 2007;Friedrich et al, 2003;Gold & Cowgill, 2011;Gold et al, 2017;Hatem et al, 2020;Khajavi et al, 2018;Ninis et al, 2013;Onderdonk et al, 2015;Sharp, 1981;Wallace, 1987;Weldon et al, 2004;Zinke et al, 2017Zinke et al, , 2019. While observations of temporally variable geologic slip rates provide additional nuance into fault behavior from a tectonics standpoint (e.g., long-term record of earthquake clusters and lulls), their implementation in seismic hazard modeling remains challenging.…”
